Chapter 384 Who told you to listen?

Wei Yunzhi didn't even understand at first.

I thought Li Yan was chanting a spell, and even thought for a moment that Li Yan had learned a minor language.

"I'm telling you I love you in words you don't understand."

She almost blushed.

Unfortunately, she is also a top student - compared to Li Yan, she is a regular version, so she still realized that Li Yan was speaking English.

Then when Li Yan ran to the other side of the runway, she finally understood what Li Yan meant.

Soon, Li Yan ran to Wei Yunzhi's side again, "On your left."

This guy is actually showing off to me?
The little beauty showed a helpless expression, but she took big steps.

It's not that easy to trap me.

After all, Li Yan ran 800 meters at full speed, so it’s time to slow down, right?
Then she was trapped in the third circle. Since Wei Yunzhi occupied the innermost lane this time, Li Yan quickly passed by her on the right and said, "On your right."

It brought up a gust of wind.

It seems that Wei Yunzhi has a serious misunderstanding of Li Yan's "full force".

However, Li Yan slowed down after running two steps forward and ran beside Wei Yunzhi.

The little beauty was a little tired at this time and needed to maintain a good breathing rhythm, so she didn't speak.

The two ran another half circle and suddenly stopped.

Because Qiu Shuli was waving.

"What a coincidence, Li Yan."

"Exercise, let's do some exercise." Li Yan actually put her hands on her hips and panted, "Who is this..."

"I know him, classmate Wei."

Wei Yunzhi was a little embarrassed for a moment and inadvertently took half a step back behind Li Yan.

"What is this?" she asked in a low voice.

"Qiu Shuli, a student in the Excellence Class, is from Jiangnan Province."

"Hello, Mr. Qiu." Wei Yunzhi said politely.

Qiu Shuli just nodded his head and his eyes never left Li Yan.

"It's a rare coincidence today, how about we go for a run together?"

"Okay, why are you running?" Li Yan asked with a smile.

"You can run anything as long as you have enough energy. Why not do short runs first and then long runs? 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 1000 meters."

Li Yan glanced at Wei Yunzhi. The little beauty rubbed her fingers secretly and shook them, whispering, "It's okay, it's okay. Go run. I'll watch. I just ran a lap at an accelerated speed and I'm tired."

"I'm tired too. It's not easy to chase you."

In order to show off the little beauty, Li Yan also put in some effort.

"No, it's easy to chase me. Aren't you better than me?"

...What are you talking about? Listen to yourself!
"It exceeded the limit three times."

Okay, okay, stop talking.

The more pure and innocent Wei Yunzhi looked, the more ashamed Li Yan felt.

Li Yan was still worried that Qiu Shuli had taken these words to heart, but when she turned around, she saw that Qiu Shuli was already warming up.

"No problem, Juri, let's run to the outside lane so as not to disturb our classmates."

Wei Yunzhi thus became a spectator and referee. Although the two of them did not say it explicitly, looking at Qiu Shuli's expression, it was obvious that they were going to have a decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City.

Li Qiu and his partner were already the focus of discussion among their classmates, and the fact that they were both standing in front of the 100-meter track to warm up was also quite big news.

Judging from the people walking leisurely in slippers, there will be no shortage of spectators for this matchup.

It's just that the proportion of girls is a bit too high. Some are eating bread, some have dishevelled hair, and some are carrying school bags and preparing to go home...

Li Yan also noticed it, but it did not give him any motivation. His threshold for showing off was quite high now, and showing off his strength in front of a group of girls was already a very basic kind of happiness.

Not at all satisfying.

Maybe Qiu Shuli is more excited about this?

"Almost done?" Li Yan asked.

"Ah."

"Ready..." Wei Yunzhi simply stood beside the runway and gave orders.

What Li Yan didn't expect was that Qiu Shuli made a starting posture for a serious competition.

No, big brother, do you really take this as a competition?

"Three, two, one, run!"

Like an arrow shot from a bow, Qiu Shuli exerted extremely great strength, pressed his head down and started violently. He looked very exhausted just at the start.

Swing your arms fully, push off the ground with force, raise your thighs, and tighten your core!
Qiu Shuli is better at short-distance running than long-distance running. He has outstanding explosive power among his peers, but his endurance is not so outstanding.

Therefore, if you want to defeat Li Yan, the 100-200 meters are the main events.

He wants to go all out!

After running for about twenty meters with his center of gravity lowered, Qiu Shuli finally raised his head and maintained a good running rhythm.

Li Yan was not in front of him!

Hold on, Qiu Shuli, hold on!

He could feel Li Yan was a body length behind him, biting him very hard.

Considering the different starting positions of the two, this gap in body position might have been caused by the moment of starting. Then think about the fact that I was wearing thin-soled shoes and Li Yan was wearing thick-soled long-distance running shoes...

What are you thinking?

Such a short sprint of just a few seconds does not allow for so many distracting thoughts, just move forward at full speed towards the finish line!
But it seemed like just a few steps later, Li Yan suddenly leaned out, chased a little bit with each step, and soon surpassed Qiu Shuli.

What’s outrageous is that Li Yan actually tilted his head and looked at Qiu Shuli for two seconds.

When he reached the front of the hill and trees, he finally observed Li Yan's running posture.

This body doesn't look like a teenager at all. The power it uses when running is much stronger than mine...

Qiu Shuli was thinking, and as the finish line was getting closer, a strong sense of unwillingness to admit defeat emerged, forcing him to make the final sprint.

The moment he crossed the finish line, Qiu Shuli felt that Li Yan's figure suddenly disappeared from his side.

He slowed down.

From the distance between the two people and the brakes after crossing the finish line, it can be seen that Li Yan stopped almost instantly, and Qiu Shuli ran all the way to the sports students' rest area - he was very famous among the sports students, just like Li Yan in New Taipei No. 1 High School back then, so he also greeted everyone.

"I can't tell which of you is faster." Wei Yunzhi said as a non-professional referee.

A group of girls in the stands had already started chattering, and most of them agreed that the two would cross the finish line at the same time.

Qiu Shuli was panting, with his hands on his hips, and walking back slowly. In fact, he had lost.

Li Yan started the race in a standing position, and overtook others as she wished during the race. She did not sprint at the finish line either, and as a result, both of them crossed the finish line at the same time.

Qiu Shuli has tried his best.

"Your running posture is quite scientific."

I never expected that Li Yan's first sentence would be this.

Qiu Shuli recalled the two seconds when Li Yan looked at him just now.

Wait, at the beginning Li Yan ran behind him, wasn’t it to observe his running posture?

"I...have learned it before."

"Many athletes who have trained for several years don't have your attitude." Li Yan affirmed, "You are gifted."

Qiu Shuli would feel happy if anyone praised him, except Li Yan, who made him feel uncomfortable.

“I learn things quickly.”

What a genius... Li Yan secretly sighed in his heart. If he didn't have this system, he would probably be a supporting role in the life of someone like Qiu Shuli.

However, Li Yan never felt guilty about defeating a genius by relying on the system.

He has never felt this kind of guilt towards Chen Fan, Klotkovic, Sun Miao, Meng Changge, Mai Wen, and now Qiu Shuli.

Talent is a gift from God.

The same goes for my system.

If this system is the kind that gives results directly after completing some simple tasks, then it can be talked about.

But this damn thing still requires hard practice. You can't miss anything you need to learn, and you can't skip the practice you need to do.

God-level auxiliary abilities such as no regression and radiation cannot increase Li Yan's upper limit.

His success today is inseparable from his personal efforts.

If this system is given to other people, they may not necessarily become the best among men.

They are all talented monsters, so let's not talk about fairness.

Li did not take the initiative to compete with the "geniuses" and then crush them and express contempt for them. He has shown great moral integrity.

How about we be the protagonist instead of the villain?
"What about 200 meters?"

"Huh?" Qiu Shuli was still panting with his hands on his hips. Seeing that the man in front of him had calmed down, he suddenly felt anxious. "I... I should take a break?"

"no problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yan turned around and walked towards Wei Yunzhi.

The beautiful girl had a silly smile on her face just now. She never expected that Li Yan would suddenly look at her. She didn't know how to change her expression.

"Why are you laughing so happily?" "Oh my god, it's real, I'm really knocking it!" A girl in the stands was jumping up and down while grabbing the clothes of the girl next to her.

The sound was so loud that even Li Yan and Wei Yunzhi heard it.

"I'm happy if you win."

Coincidentally, Ning Yuqing with long black straight hair "just happened" to walk past.

She obviously heard these words. Li Yan clearly saw that she shuddered for a moment and was trying to hold back her laughter.

Then he sat on the stands beside the track, holding a glass of juice in his hand.

The little beauty noticed something different. She raised her hand to greet Ning Yuqing and asked, "Classmate, may I ask..."

Ning Yuqing pointed directly to the vending machine in the rest passage at the back.

"Thank you!" After saying that, Wei Yunzhi ran over happily.

Ning Yuqing looked at Li Yan and suddenly showed a rare expression of joy:
"They look good together."

Li Yan just smiled.

After drinking the sports drink bought by the beautiful girl, Li Yan, who was already in good shape, felt even more energetic.

It’s really amazing, what brand is this?
"Have you rested?"

Qiu Shuli also received some drinks from his sports student friends, and he drank half a bottle in one go.

"Let's go, two hundred meters."

In fact, after "losing" to Li Yan in the 100 meters, Qiu Shuli's self-confidence had been largely reduced.

The longer the distance, the more obvious his disadvantage.

Maybe we still need to gain a little advantage by starting off, at least to have more momentum.

Qiu Shuli was thinking this, but he saw Li Yan also squatting down, maintaining the standard starting posture.

Bro, are you serious about this?

"Run!" Wei Yun gave the order, and Li Yan rushed out with a gust of wind.

What a fucking sense of power! Qiu Shuli couldn't help but watch Li Yan's start. He could even imagine the starting blocks making a vibration due to Li Yan's stare.

Although they didn't have a starting block either.

I can’t catch up. I can’t catch up at all!
During these 200 meters, Li Yan maintained a lead of more than one body length throughout the race and crossed the finish line - he still did not sprint, but the deceleration was not as obvious as in the 100 meters.

After crossing the finish line, Li Yan's hair was a little fluffy due to the wind, so he wiped the sweat off his face and smoothed it down a bit.

Then suddenly I felt a flash somewhere in front of me.

Then I saw a girl who was so frightened that her face turned as red as an apple, and a group of girls next to her were already laughing.

The so-called candid photo taking and forgetting to turn off the flash.

What they didn't expect was that Li Yan actually took a few steps towards Wei Yunzhi who was standing next to the finish line - two hundred meters was too long, and she couldn't shout "Run" in the middle and then have time to see who would cross the finish line first, so it was Qiu Shuli who shouted the start.

"Do you mind?" Li Yan asked.

Wei Yunzhi was confused, "What?"

“Someone just took a picture of me.”

“What’s there to mind about this, this, this, this, this?” Wei Yunzhi avoided her gaze.

Li Yan just smiled.

"No, I saw a lot of people filming it, maybe they were recording your competition?" Wei Yunzhi's speech speed suddenly increased. "And this should depend on whether you mind or not, how can it be whether I mind or not..."

"The flash was on. Everyone knows it. I'm just asking you."

I shouldn't have misunderstood, right? Wei Yunzhi asked herself frantically. Li Yan's initiative was so sudden that she couldn't deal with it in a normal way. It was very difficult for her to suppress her hot cheeks.

"Do you hope I mind or not?" Li Yan asked again.

"I……"

Seeing that Wei Yunzhi's head was about to smoke, Li Yan couldn't hold back her laughter. She took a sip of sports drink and turned to walk towards Qiu Shuli.

Little girl, you've tricked me so many times, and now you're defeated this time, right?

Qiu Shuli had already sat on the ground.

“Going all out” is fucking hard.

Just talking about 400 meters and 1000 meters, you will suffer the consequences if you think you are so self-righteous.

Li Yan could see that he was very tired, "How about not running the 400 meters?"

"What? You mean I have to run another 1,000 meters?"

Li Yan sat next to Qiu Shuli. "Long-distance running is a way to relax."

Qiu Shuli smiled and said, "Okay, I'll rest for a while."

"Your running form is really good, and I feel like you handle the details better than I do." Li Yan said, "I adjusted my running form for the past 200 meters according to yours, and it really feels a little faster. To see if there is any improvement, I may need to time my runs a few more times."

Qiu Shuli seemed to be hesitant to speak, feeling a little bitter in his heart.

It turned out that Li Yan was just competing with himself, and the so-called "competition" was just Qiu Shuli's wishful thinking.

There were quite a lot of people watching. Looking at the girls laughing and joking, he thought they were probably either crazy about them or they were supporting Li Yan and Wei Yunzhi.

In fact, Qiu Shuli underestimated himself. He was actually more attractive than Li Yan.

Li Yan is really out of reach, and she is already in a relationship, a princess of Yili Group. Who would dare to seek a sense of existence?
If he knew this fact, he would probably feel even worse.

The self that was once out of reach has become within reach in front of an even more outrageous person.

For him, it was a big failure.

"You and classmate Wei Yunzhi are really a couple?" For some reason, he wanted to talk to Li Yan without being a competitor.

"We're just good friends."

“Do good friends interact like this?”

“Isn’t this how good friends interact?”

"Tsk..." Qiu Shuli shook his head, "Although I've never been in a relationship. Do you know that many people like to watch you two interact?"

"Probably." Li Yan shrugged, "At least I can see it today."

“I feel like you two…”

"Minors cannot fall in love."

Li Yan interrupted the spell.

But Qiu Shuli narrowed his eyes and said, "There is a formula. Now we are just good friends + minors cannot fall in love = when you become adults..."

"One thousand meters." Li Yan directly pulled Qiu Shuli up.

"Brother, brother, I'm still tired."

"I've already given you 400 meters off. Just run 1,000 meters slowly to relax."

"Okay." Qiu Shuli sighed, "Then..."

Li Yan just ran out with big strides.

No...you call this relaxation?
Finally, Li Yan was doing relaxation exercises at the finish line, while Qiu Shuli collapsed beside the railing, gasping for breath.

It was pulled apart.

“Is this what you call a relaxed run?”

"Relax, I didn't say I wanted to relax. Who told you to keep up with me?"

Damn, it’s a murder that breaks one’s heart!

What is even more heartbreaking is the conversation between Li Yan and Wei Yunzhi afterwards. In fact, they spoke quite quietly.

However, Qiu Shuli had a strong attention span and good ears, so he still heard it.

"Yan, seeing your condition, why don't you just run a marathon."

"Marathon? What makes you think that?"

"One is that you feel like you didn't enjoy your run, and the other is that you just happened to have a race recently."

"Having fun or something..." If the value didn't increase, it naturally couldn't be considered as having fun. "In your eyes, am I just someone who challenges the limits every day?"

"Yes, a little bit. I support pushing your limits while still being able to get out of this unscathed."

"I know about the race, the New Taipei City Run. I do have time to participate now, but I was too busy when I signed up, so I missed it."

"Want to run?"

"think."

"Then I'll sign you up."

What a willful young lady! Although Li Yan has expressed her desire to participate in the marathon given her current status, the organizer will certainly be happy to add a seat for her.

But he really doesn't like this kind of "privilege". It's meaningless to show off one's status.

It takes the organizer’s initiative to invite us, well, that’s good enough.

"No matter how you report it, you'll miss it."

“My family is the sponsor.”

...Well, let's just say it's an invitation from the organizer.

Qiu Shuli was annoyed by this conversation, but he couldn't say anything. After all...

Who told you to listen to it, right?
